    Oengus, that is a pretty cool bike and think it could do well in more than a couple markets. Nice clean classic cafe racer stylings.

    Maybe we can get some more info from the el Presidente Colosimo on these rides. It sure would be nice!

    Speaking of classic "plain vanilla" styling, simply is incomprehensible, why only the rare Chinese brands are going this way.

    BTW, here's another "plain vanilla" - Minsk 500. Again, it is a Chinese engine - this time, the "Asiawing's" 500 cc thumper. It is a pity that there is no interest by the Chinese manufacturer to offer something like this.

    Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...

    It seems that the on-line translator did the job, but there are couple words that aren't translated:
    spitsovannyh - spoked
    kliponami - clip-on handles
    Kitka - the translator made a mistake, the original text says "kitaiskii" which means "Chinese".
